On October 2, 2018, the Pacific Crest Trail is celebrating the 50th year since its inception as a National Scenic Trail which is a designation that protects it from private land development and preserves the trail for thousands of hikers every year. The fall season is also the season that thru-hikers around the USA are reaching their terminus. To celebrate the occasion, we’re featuring some monumental stories of growth and exploration.
